I just can't understand why people don't save and wait for proper wheels. It's all about playing the long game. Where's Winston, Turner or Turkish when you need them?

You can't put shitty Lensos or similar on with the genuine BBS bumper. That's like wearing f**king plimsolls with a fine hand tailored suit.

Without doubt, they have a great reputation. You'll probably find they have a grease nipple too, which is something I like. Old school but effective.

They're OEM quality (probably better than Renault's TBH). Been used in the Jap scene for ages.

I'm not talking about to sell on, making money on it is fine, but I doubt Joe public are doing that. I can't see why on earth anybody would spend that kind of money for a terrible looking jumped up supermini to actually own, considering what else can be had for that kind of money.

Just checking... Yeah it still looks w**k. Crying at £40k, you'd have to be some kind of special to spend that on it.

I reckon that'll be the one. Can't remember what it's called mind to link it lol.

V8 = noise/torque/crying children. Can't fault that, plus there's always the option to add boost. Is the one you're thinking of that Aussie one with a supercharger?

V8 conversions don't make me cry in S-Bodies. If I was going to build a face swapped 13 it would be a 14a front. Or I'd have either factory fronts. Or I'd build a 15 with a 14a front. I've got my eye on R32 GTRs now, just need to get a 6 month secondment next year at work to buy it.

I've been told 7mb/s for my house. Same provider at my parent's house (which is A LOT closer to the exchange in the same village)... I can see them getting a pissed off phone call in a couple of weeks when it's all set up & sorted.

100% legal.

Enkeis from an Evo 8 to be a bit more precise.

It's really not though, because you buy a car that's cheap to buy, insure and run. It's not rocket science.

That's 20mb faster than our home line. FML.

Fail to see your point, did it myself with all my NCB on the Nissan & Mazda. If I could afford it, then I'm sure you can ;)

Buy a £50 snotter for work, lord it up over the weekend in the Aston. Win win. Frankly I wouldn't want to take a car like that to work anyway, but then that might have something to do with the s**te cars get covered in at my place.

No ta.

I'd leave that tbh. Having bought cars like that before, it's usually a money pit until the day you get fed up and sell it.

This place has to quiz anybody under 20 where they got the money for an RS Clio though, so it's bound to happen.

I see.

So I've read through this thread, and I must be missing something. What exactly is this wax offering that other waxes don't? I'd imagine there's plenty out there that make LY shiny.

That engine probably weighs more than the entire car.

To think I nearly didn't click this due to the title. Some massive jump from that cack A1 that's for sure. Fair play to you. Wish I could stomach living at home any longer to own something similar but hey ho.

Depends on what it is, but ultimately probably not!

I will be getting shot of it. Not for the time being, can't be bothered trying to sell a car at this time of year, nor can I afford anything I actually want lol.

Lol fair enough. Yeah the rest of it's sound, that's why I bought it.

This isn't tidy TBH, it needs spraying ideally. Much like all my cars.

Seen how much a decent Chaser costs? Don't have the pennies Chris, not by a long shot. I could sell this, my Regas and Azevs, plunder my savings and shares, and I'd maybe just scrape a Chaser. Then I'd be fucked if anything broke on it or the house. Like I said, if my boss releases me to do...

Well it's your call at the end of the day, but TBH after seeing that I'd bite the bullet and do the full job.

Yeah but it's no good just doing it from the inside, when the outside is getting sprayed with all the s**t that causes rot in the first place!
